Let's
discuss 5 Different Career Possibilities. They are as follows: REAL ESTATE APPRAISAL, REAL
ESTATE SALES, HOME INSPECTION, MORTGAGE FINANCING\=

Real Estate Appraisal requires a 90 hour educational commitment to enter the field. We have many links
describing the field, but in short, you inspect a home, and using several
different approaches determine it's value for a variety of purposes. These can
include Financing, Mortgages, Estates, Divorce Actions, IRS Cases, Litigation,
and the list goes on. Most entry level positions involve working at an appraisal
firm, either full or part-time. You may, after 2 years minimum decide to go on
your own and open your own appraisal firm. Many people, even after they gain the
required experience still work within an appraisal corporate structure. This is
not a commission type position. You receive payment for each appraisal, even if
the loan does not close, or the sale does not occur. You are paid for your
actual report. Take me back to Careers Page----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
